On Air

Sophie Baker and Ryan Schwarz did a great job last week on ABC Radio when they were interviewed by Peter Goers. They handled Peter's questions superbly and did a great job promoting the prize and the stories associated with the Anzac Spirit. Well done.

As previously mentioned, the job is not done now we are home from Vietnam - it really has just started.  As ambassadors for the prize we have much to do in promoting the competition and tour as much as we can. I will be in touch with many of you over coming months when opportunities arise.  Please also send me any information/newspaper articles etc of anything you do - I am always interested to hear what you have followed-up with after the trip.

Whilst on the promotion of the prize, here is the video made on 5 July at the reception at Ayers House.

Thanks to William, Montana and Tabitha for their efforts on the day to talk on the video.  Use the video as you see fit when you do any talks.


Here is the link to the video:

Farewell to the 2019 Premier's Anzac Spirit School Prize group

The 2019 Premier's Anzac Spirit School Prize students gathered for the last time on 9 December in the Memorial Hall of RSL SA. All the guests appreciated hearing the significant moments of the trip from the students and just sharing with them the excitement of seeing each other again and telling their stories and impressions of the trip  with parents and special guests. Thanks to our speakers in making this a special occasion: Ms Cheryl Cates (RSL SA President), Ken Lountain (Directory, Department  for Education) and the wise and unforgettable Bob Kearney OAM.

Thanks to everyone for your great input to this event - an important final act for the group. 

Just a few images to remember the day.

Tabitha, Daisy and Matilda - all smiles!
